"Euskal Herria" is the original name for the Basque Country. Divided in 7 regions of which 3 are on the French side and 4 on the Spanish one. La Soule (Zuberoa) is probably the wildest side of the Euskal Herria : our friend Polo was born there. His AJS 18 from 1949 remains there, hidden secretly. Polo went across Spain & Portugal with that machine : he knows every part of it. Twenty years ago, aNorton became his favorite but for our photo session, the AJS came out of the barn.Polo could very well put it back on the road anytime.
